Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 688: Chapter 198 Garrison Commander: My Lord, Lord of the Commandery!

”No...”

Nan Batian’s eyes bulged as he saw Chen Jie getting close to him.

At this moment, his exposed weakness was wide open. He wanted to muster a breath of Gang Qi for defense, but the intense collision just moments before had exacerbated the cracks in his Dantian, making it impossible for him to summon his Gang Qi.

Chen Jie, with no intention of holding back, launched a deadly move straight at Nan Batian’s chest with his hand.

This palm, with the ferocity of the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms, aimed right at the heart. If there was no Gang Qi defense and relying solely on physical strength, Nan Batian’s heart would inevitably be shattered.

”Die!”

Awooo...

A dragon’s roar echoed throughout the entire venue, drawing the attention of the crowd who felt that Nan Batian’s fate was sealed.

Nan Batian could only watch helplessly as Chen Jie’s palm descended, feeling the approach of death. He had miscalculated, not expecting his Dantian to be so severely injured, nor did he expect Chen Jiusi to be so fierce, clashing directly with him without holding back.

Moreover, he even realized that Chen Jiusi was more ferocious today than that night.

This was no false impression, as in the past two days, aside from discussing policies with Zhao Ya, Chen Jie had occasionally talked about Martial Arts.

Zhao Ya’s martial talent was indeed high, and with the guidance of great masters, her understanding of Martial Arts was definitely superior to Chen Jie’s.

From their chats, Chen Jie learned that Zhao Ya’s strength was also in the Holding Core Realm, which was quite normal given the strength of the Prince Mansion. It was possible for them to forcibly elevate Zhao Ya’s power even further.

However, Zhao Ya had learned an extremely formidable Martial Art which required a solid foundation. To improve, one had to progress step by step. Otherwise, with the Prince Mansion’s capability, enhancing her strength wouldn’t be an issue.

As to what Martial Art Zhao Ya was practicing, Chen Jie had once tried to ask tentatively, but Zhao Ya kept her lips sealed, evidently avoiding the topic, so Chen Jie couldn’t forcibly inquire.

It was precisely because of recent discussions with Zhao Ya about Martial Arts that Chen Jie’s understanding had advanced a level, thus enhancing his strength. Although he was not in the Holding Core Realm, in terms of actual strength, he should already be on par with the pre-injured Nan Batian.

That’s why he had been steadily gaining the upper hand in the battle just now.

Chen Jie’s palm was about to strike Nan Batian’s heart, but at that moment, a whooshing sound rang in his ear.

Startled, Chen Jie turned his head to see a Chain Blade flying straight at him, emanating a strong Sword Gang.

Clearly, a Holding Core Realm powerhouse had made a move. Chen Jie hastily retreated a step, but unexpectedly the Chain Blade continued to sweep through the air towards him.

Chen Jie was shocked and struck the Chain Blade with his palm, but to his surprise, a massive force sent him flying.

Simultaneously, the Chain Blade pursued Chen Jie once again.

Li Man’er at that moment, with a smile on her face, said, ”Young man, come play with sister.”

Following that, the Chain Blade seemed to have a mind of its own as it relentlessly attacked Chen Jie.

Seeing this, Chen Jie was shocked; the blade was like a maggot in the bone, impossible to shake off.

After two palm strikes that sent the blade flying, it quickly rolled back into attack. Chen Jie was now caught in a passive position.

Seeing this, Liu Laoguai and Qimu Ge exchanged a glance. Liu Laoguai said, ”Go.”

Qimu Ge waved his hand and said, ”Wait.”

He actually stopped Liu Laoguai from helping Chen Jie, causing Liu’s expression to flash with confusion as he looked at Qimu Ge, ”What do you mean?”

Qimu Ge replied, ”Lord Yelu hasn’t made a move yet.”

Indeed, Yelu had not yet acted. He had already noticed the beautiful woman attempting to save Nan Batian by attacking Chen Jiusi, but he had not immediately attacked her, allowing her the chance to kill Chen Jiusi. He had his own schemes in mind.

Chen Jie’s relationship with the Commandery Princess had been growing closer, which greatly affected his control over Mianshui. However, there was nothing he could do about the Commandery Princess, so he had to endure.

Now, Nan Batian’s martial sister wanted to kill Chen Jie, and it was a perfect opportunity to accomplish the deed by proxy.

Unfortunately, Chen Jiusi was as slippery as an eel, hard to grasp.

Yelu inwardly regretted when, turning his head, he saw a white-robed figure flitting past not far away.

He thought to himself, the Commandery Princess has actually come. There’s no helping it now. With that thought, he raised his hand and struck at the beautiful woman with a [Sky Splitting Palm].

”How dare you!”

With that cry, the beautiful woman saw Yelu’s palm thundering towards her, swiftly retracted her Chain Blade to counter the Sky Splitting Palm in the air, and then withdrew her blade.

At that moment, Yelu stood up with a smack on the table and said, ”How audacious! Two traitors secretly allied with the Zoroastrian Sect daring to cause trouble in my Mianshui County, bring these two to me!”

Yelu roared, and the guards unsheathed their swords, all poised for combat.

At this sight, Nan Batian became nervous, but Yu Man’er seemed unconcerned.

At the same time, a voice came from outside, ”Ha, Yelu, you wield such great authority! If you say someone is allied with Zoroastrianism, then they are accused of Zoroastrianism. Well, see if I too am accused of Zoroastrianism!”

Hmm!

Hearing this, all eyes turned to the entrance, and then they saw a troop of Red Armored Cavalry charging into the venue, instantly causing chaos.

Yelu frowned upon seeing the Red Armored Cavalry.

The garrison commander’s office!

Simultaneously, a man leisurely rode out on his horse, glanced at Yelu and said, ”Lord Yelu, you truly command great authority. You accuse whoever of being in league with the Zoroastrian Sect. Now tell me, am I also accused of being in league with the Zoroastrian Sect?”
